This is why we stand for the National Anthem

Well said COL Charles Williams and thanks for sharing an inspirational video.
I choose to stand when the National Anthem is played because I have been a Soldier and I am a citizen and a veteran of military service to this nation.
Thanks for mentioning me COL Mikel J. Burroughs

Excellent video COL Williams. Too bad a lot of civilians can't see this clip, then they'd maybe do a cranial extraction, that's a big maybe.
